No job. No savings. No plan. Just a talent for blowing up her own life and calling it \"character development\". \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShe's spent years being the good girlfriend, the dependable ate--the woman who makes herself smaller so everyone else can take up space. This time, she wants a life that's hers. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNick Malvar, front man of indie band Word Warlords, has been in love with his best friend's older sister since high school. So when Katha shows up at his doorstep--disheveled and gloriously single--Nick sees his chance. Katha sees a mistake waiting to happen. She doesn't need a romance. She needs stability. Reinvention. Possibly therapy. What she definitely does not need is a younger man with a guitar, a hero complex, and a long-standing crush he's suddenly very interested in acting on. But Nick isn't here to tame her. He just won't let her disappear. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAnd as any good Shakespearean heroine knows: the battle of wills is only the beginning.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMica De Leon\u003c\/b\u003e is a Filipino author of swoony romance comedy novels and SFF novels.
